This apartment is located on the 2nd and 3rd floor of my duplex. Newer kitchen cabinets, appliances, pergo and tile on the main living floor and carpet on the 3rd floor. There is a bedroom on the 2nd and 3rd floor. The main floor bedroom has lots of windows. We have installed blackout curtains throughout. These curtains provide great blockage of light and provide good insulation.

The kitchen is the first room as you enter the apartment. It's bright and open with a dine-in table and chairs. Updated appliances and cabinets make it a cinch to prepare meals. There is a new dishwasher too. You have gas stove, overhead microwave and medium sized fridge. All cooking utensils, pots and pans, etc are provided. Basic cooking ingredients such as oil, salt and pepper and some spices are provided.

The next room is the living room. It has a full size futon and smart TV. Very cozy place to hang out.

There is a doorway to upstairs in the living room to the 2nd bedroom. This bedroom has a full size bed and twin bed. Chest of drawers is up here with lights and such. Electric heating up here.

The apartment is heated by a hot water radiator system powered by a gas furnace. It puts out some major heat in the winter time. We have portable window units for A/C throughout the home. You're welcomed to open the windows in the kitchen and front bedroom to allow fresh air to flow through too. It does catch a nice breeze that way.

You will find it to be a quaint neighborhood. Lots of small businesses and pizza sub shops. They are actually pretty decent is very cost effective. Further out you will find more restaurants and shopping malls. All of which are 4-10 minutes away at the most.

You'll find parking to be a cinch. There is a vacant parking lot across the street that you can use or park on-street. No parking permit required.

About Q. Chau

I have always loved traveling. Caught the travel bug when I had studied abroad for a year. When I travel, I look for unique, authentic experiences. Love food, architecture and history.
Huge dog lover. My favorite is the majestic Great Dane. Our first was a Harlequin, 140lbs of speed and agility (championship breed). Our little one is a 8lb Yorkipoo. So, if you travel with your pets, they are welcomed here :-)
Also, I invest in vacation properties as a source of income and serve as a retirement strategy for my family. Love passive income with minimal work. I have developed a system for it and now expanding internationally. If you like to know more, just ask me. Otherwise, enjoy your stay at our vacation home.

Why Q. Chau chose Harrisburg

Purchasing properties in great locations has always been a priority for me. This vacation apartment is no exception.
This property is unique because it's in a north central Harrisburg neighborhood. It's accessibility to all highways, major roads, shopping, restaurants and conveniences make it a top pick among travelers. It's a well furnished home with style and functionality. Although it's a 2 bedroom, it has separation between the two bedrooms with one on the next story up. All rooms are spacious and lots of light. You can't go wrong with this old charming apartment in north Harrisburg that is just 3 miles from downtown. Lots of updates here.

From start to finish, this was a delightful process and place to stay during a recent visit to Harrisburg, PA. Q was really easy to work with, prompt with messages and, once I was there, a phone call of "greeting" and TXTs as needed.

The place was exactly as promised and as depicted in photos... nicely furnished and comfortable. Parking on the street or in the parking lot across the street was plenty and easy. This location was perfect for my needs, close to everywhere I wanted to visit.

When back in Harrisburg, I'll hope to book this again!

Enjoyed our stay while visiting the Hershey area. This is an older home, but found it to be VERY clean. Furniture could use a little updating, but for the short time we were there, it was fine. Kitchen was stocked with coffee and tea, which was a nice surprise :)

Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home.

Thanks Jackie for staying at our vacation apartment in Harrisburg, PA. Glad you had a good stay. We were going for vintage look at the apartment mixed with modern touches. Had hired a furniture guy so still working on it. Thanks for the great feedback. Cheers!
